Hi there!
As some of you know, the last week of December '09 I started stitching on linen and of course am LOVING it! A couple of my charts are screaming to be stitched on a primitive type linen.
I don't intend to raid anyone's stash, BUT if you don't stitch anymore or would simply like to make some mad money and know your linen will be used ~ I'd be grateful to purchase:
BOAF Meadow Lark linen, prefer 36 ct., but 32 CT. would be suitable.
Does anyone know if this can be purchased new? If so, who is reputable?
Here's where I am: stitchinsweetsue@gmail.com
Thx for stopping in dear friends, Sweet Stitchin and Tootles for now...

Hi there sweet friends, nice of you to stop by!
Prim and folkart needlework designs of drab reds, browns, golds and greens are what I fancy.
Let's share stitchin, sewin, nestin, cookin, collectin, prims, critters and a lovin' mishmash of sweet life...
I don't know if that particular fabric is available or not. A lot of time particular linens are made for a while and then their gone - like quilting fabric. Some reliable places to get linen are Wyndam Needleworks and The Elegant Stitch (you can google them because I don't have the links etched in my brain). Both ladies will be able to recommend a suitable replacement for whatever linen you're looking for. And welcome to the wonderful world of linen stitching. You're probably never use anything else now.
ReplyDeleteI love linen. It calls out for great projects.
ReplyDeleteVikki Clayton hand dyes her linen. She may be able to match something.

Have a great day.
BOAF linen is being made again by a new company who took over their linen making. If you go to Needle in a Haystack, I'm pretty sure they sell the linen. Just google it and you'll find them. They're usually pretty fast too.
ReplyDeleteI love stitching on linen - it has such a nice feel to it. Sorry I can't help you with that linen.
ReplyDeleteI found it at Needle in a Haystack in Alameda, CA I hear it's a good store. Good luck! I myself am hooked on 40 count Lakeside Linen.
